<div dir="ltr">Hello,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am in the process of re-doing my mature shelves for my 6-8 library. I wasn't very... diligent whenever it came to making sure the mature books were on the mature shelf because I believe that kids should read whatever they need because what is not relevant
 to one student may be very relevant to another. With that being said, I was wondering how you physically marked the books that you label "mature" or for 8th grade or whatever wording you use. I have put a note in their destiny records that they need to be
 shelved on the mature shelf, but I am looking for some way to make knowing the shelf that they go on easier, i.e. at first glance. I know I can just place them to the side whenever I check books in and the mature shelf note pops up, but I sometimes have others
 check in books and shelve them so I'm looking for an easy way to tell the difference.</div>
